DESCRIPTION
5S is a method of workplace organization that aims to improve efficiency, safety, and productivity. It consists of five steps: Sort, Set in order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain.
- In the Sort phase, unnecessary items are removed from the workspace, leaving behind only what is essential.
- Set in Order focuses on organizing and tagging items so they can be easily located and accessed.
